Vacco to discuss Weinstein's upcoming retrial for sex crimes in New York. The new trial date is scheduled for January 29, 2025. Harvey Weinstein was convicted in 2020 sexual assault and rape, however New York State's highest court overturned his conviction, ruling that the judge should not have allowed testimony from other accusers for prior bad acts for which Mr. Weinstein was not charged.
